Re: httping 1.4.4-1 contains file *.1.gz [Fix included]

The httping 1.4.4-1 package contains a file name with asterisk:

$ cygcheck -l httping
/usr/bin/httping.exe
/usr/share/doc/Cygwin/httping-1.4.4.README
/usr/share/doc/httping/license.txt
/usr/share/doc/httping/readme.txt
/usr/share/man/man1/httping.1.gz
/usr/share/man/man1/*.1.gz

http://cygwin.com/packages/httping/httping-1.4.4-1

The packaging script httping-1.4.4-1.sh does not support wildcards in the install.lst file:


$ cat httping-1.4.4/CYGWIN-PATCHES/install.lst
*.1 usr/share/man/man1/
httping usr/bin/

This results in:

$ ./httping-1.4.4-1.sh --test install
...
--- Installing with external: CYGWIN-PATCHES/install.lst
...
install -m 755 \
  /usr/src/httping-1.4.4/.build/build/httping.1 \
  /usr/src/httping-1.4.4/.inst/usr/share/man/man1/*.1


Fix: The first line of install.lst can be removed. It is not needed as the man page is later overwritten with an alternate one from CYGWIN-PATCHES.
